Chapter 43: Sophora japonica



Before going out, Xiao Guo asked Zhuang Zhuang to learn well. Originally, Zhuang Zhuang wanted to follow, but Xiao Guo did not let him. They went out to avoid people and went to the mountain and followed the marks to the lake. There were quite a few fish in it, but not as many as last time, only two or three. Xiao Guo drove the fish into the corner based on his experience last time, and slowly narrowed the range and drove them into the basket.

He went ashore, carried the basket and came to the trap. There was no prey in it. Before leaving, he ran into the pheasant nest from before. The big pheasant was still kicking Xiaoguo in the grass nest, trying to prevent Xiaoguo from stealing its eggs. Xiaoguo was speechless, and he sneered and walked away without paying any attention to it.

Xiaoguo walked towards where the potatoes were, and unexpectedly she found a soapberry tree on the road. Xiaoguo didn't notice it at first, but she had come here so many times and never noticed this tree. It turned out that it was hidden among a group of big redwood trees, making it particularly inconspicuous. This time, Xiaoguo felt something was wrong and paid special attention to it.

Xiaoguo hurried over and was shocked when he got in front of it. It looked short, but when he got in front of it, he found that it was not tall but very lush, with soap beans hanging densely on it, and they were very good in size. Xiaoguo thought that it was because no one had picked them for a long time.

Although the tree is short, it is still much taller than a person. The little fruit could not reach the basket, so he had to throw away the basket and hang on the branch with a sickle. With a little effort, he hung it down. The height was just right. The little fruit could pick a lot of soapberries by just raising his feet.

Xiaoguo still remembered the potatoes, so he only took one basket and couldn't pick too many. He let go of the branch after shaking the basket and felt that he had picked enough. This time, since he knew the location, Xiaoguo didn't mark it. He carried the basket to where the potatoes were. Xiaoguo put the basket down, squatted down and pulled the potatoes. This time, Xiaoguo put the seedlings aside and took them back to feed the chickens, ducks, donkeys and cows at home when he left.

For fear of crushing the fish to death, I put the potatoes at the bottom, the soap beans in the middle, the fish on top, and finally the vines on the top to cover it. It was perfect.

Because of the seedlings, the basket was already half a meter higher than Xiaoguo. Xiaoguo gathered his breath and slowly stood up. After standing firmly, he prepared to go down the mountain and go home. He also picked some mushrooms on the way, which he stuffed into the basket and prepared to fry for lunch.

After returning home, the fragrance had already filled the air. Zhuangzhuang had already learned five new words by then, and was anxiously waiting for Xiaoguo to come back and check on him. When he saw Xiaoguo, he immediately ran over. Instead of rushing for Xiaoguo to check on him, he helped Xiaoguo put the things in the basket.

With a cry, Xiaoguo relaxed his muscles. With his special ability, he soon felt less tired. Xiaoguo washed his hands first and then picked up the words written by Zhuangzhuang. They were as neat as ever, with the left-falling strokes in the correct order and the right-falling strokes in the correct order.

Xiaoguo praised Zhuangzhuang, and then he sat at the table. Zhuangzhuang obediently covered his book with a brush in his hand, waiting for Xiaoguo to check his dictation.

The small fishing village on the other side...

Jiang Shanhe warned Li Shouji who was about to go out, "Don't go to the mountains. I don't eat pheasants."

Li Shouji reluctantly retracted his left foot and turned to look at the man who was drinking porridge, "I know." He said this, but he was very active in his heart.

Jiang Shanhe knew what he was thinking after just one look. He put down the bowl in his hand and looked at him seriously. "This is a critical moment. We can't have any accidents." Seeing his serious expression, Jiang Shanhe slowed down his tone. "I'm almost well. I don't need to take care of myself. You don't need to go either. If no one had saved you last time, you would have died in there."

Li Shouji sighed softly, "Yes, thanks to that brother."

Jiang Shanhe breathed a sigh of relief knowing that he had put his mind at ease. At this juncture, they couldn't afford any accidents. Once the matter was over, he could go home.

"When will the troops arrive?" Jiang Shanhe asked Li Shouji in a low voice.

Li Shouji couldn't help but put on a respectful expression when talking about serious matters. He stood up straight and said, "General, the latest is three days."

Jiang Shanhe nodded thoughtfully. It will be soon. It will be soon.

"Otherwise, let's go and take a look." Jiang Shanhe spoke after a while. This matter must be foolproof.

Li Shouji nodded and said, "I will leave early tomorrow morning."
